“We clearly see that there is a growing middle class coming through in Africa and that there is a lot of interest in development and we assume that the middle class as we have seen it in South Africa is growing and there is purchasing power and there is a demand for our cars as well,” he told CNN’s Robyn Curnow.

People who Follow you, and then Unfollow youby healthmunsta 22 months agoI am literally sick and tired of people who follow you, and then, when you follow them back, they promptly unfollow you. Really, people? What do you do when someone unfollows you shortly after you follow them? Do you hunt them down and unfollow them as well? Do you send them mail saying what they.32Car Safety Safe DrivingWould you let a 12 year old drive your car?by Roberta McIlroy 4 months agoMy 12 year old recently went on a camping trip with some of his dads friends.

Bridging the GT only and LMP/GT series is the fan favourite Japanese Super GT series. Super GT features the aforementioned GT3 category (known as GT300), with some custom cars thrown in the mix, such as the infamous Toyota Prius Racer. Super GT also has the draw of GT500, spec chassis prototype GT cars with turbocharged 4 cylinder engines. They are very fast and very exciting to watch, and feature cars from Nissan, Honda and Toyota/Lexus.

I not found the magic consolidated app or map. In the midwest we have Greenlots showing up at BP stations, EV Connect in some Public Garages, and other locally based rideshare systems like BlueIndy which also allow for charger accounts (you can park and charge in open spaces). You might also look to see where your local government fleets are parking often, these vehicles have chargers in garages that are also accessible to the public.

Bloomberg had some car engineers tear down a model 3. What they found was that it was over engineered in a way that didn’t benefit the overall product, but made production more complicated and expensive. They found that had Tesla used more traditional manufacturing methods like those of Toyota or Ford, they could have increased profit margins significantly without sacrificing any of the model 3’s safety or structural integrity.

There was only time to discover that my taxi driver was called Philip, that his full time job was as a BMW development engineer and that he had been around the Nordschleife “more than 3,000 times” and then he was waving his access pass at the control barrier and we were embarking on our first lap under gut wrenching acceleration.

First, determine the cause of the leak. Look under the hood and inspect the washer tank. You’ll find it on the passenger side (see first image below). If you determine that the tank is not leaking, then it’s probably one of the pumps and/or rubber grommets that has sprung a leak. Look at the front of the tank between the tank and the headlight. You’ll see the two black pumps. The pump on the right, closer to the engine, is for the windshield. In my case this is where the leak was. I could tell by the blue residue left on the sides of the pump by the leaking fluid. I also turned the key on and squirted the window a bit with the washers. I could tell there was newly leaked washer fluid under the basin.

Alinghi had chosen to build a 101ft super lightweight catamaran, while BMW Oracle Racing opted for a 114ft trimaran with a giant solid wing mast in place of a more conventional sail. Both boats were impressive in their own rights and could sail at three times the wind speed, but BMW Oracle’s USA 17 particularly so, its wing taller than the total wingspan of a Boeing 747 at 223ft, the largest rigid wing ever built. Indeed, the technology on display propelled the event into completely new territory.

I drive a 325. we have 2 Britax Marathons installed so neither is in the center, DS (dear son) 1 who is 3 sits behind the driver (DH is 6 3 so that seat needs to be able to go all the way back) DS (dear son) 2 who is 11 mo sits behind the passenger RF. But we leave that seat pushed almost all the way up. I drive the car most of the time, and not many passengers, if we do all go out in it DH (dear husband) drives, but I am short 5 4 so can handle the passenger seat being pushed up. Before we had DS2 in the graco snugride on the passenger side. But now with the july baby coming it looks like I am trurning in my car. very sad.

Then in 2009, the floor dropped from under me. First I got laid from my job. Which allowed me to daytrade full time over a span of 9 months while halfheartedly job hunting and collecting the $1600/month unemployment that covered my monthly living expenses. Unfortunately, right around then I reverted back to the mean and the gambling tables turned cold. Over that 9 months in 2009, I eventually gave back all my winnings and then some, dropping my brokerage balance to $25k.

I not the dude you replying to, but you should know that police reports are often full of exaggerations, hyperbole, and downright falsehoods. The police present their side of the story to make them look as good as possible and justified in their actions. A police report is not admissable as evidence in California and other states as it is considered hearsay.

They don have ABS or TC and they much faster, plus they harder to set up. If you only have a little experience in the Ferrari GT3, I would recommend buying the Merc or the Audi and racing those in IMSA GT3, then progress up the ranks into GTE. The experience you gain will be worth it.Real racing drivers don jump the gun on what they race, so we sim drivers shouldn either, right?Hmm.

Backs Against the WallEverybody was doing badly, but AMC was doing the worst. The Arab oil embargo had actually meant AMC increased sales by 15% against an industry fall of 21% as customers scrambled for small cars, but then the company had been crippled by a three week strike in the September.

How They’re ConstructedCabinet box The cabinet box is generally touted as “all plywood” and it is. However, the plywood itself is purchased with low price in mind, so it is common to experience peeling veneers and severely warped panels. Furthermore, the interior coatings used to finish the plywood are of low quality, so the interior generally has a ‘starved’ and coarse look/feel.

High resale value. A Mini brand car has a pretty good resale value, assuming the car is in great shape and has no problems with it. If and when you decide to get rid of your car, you will earn more back than what you would with other vehicles. I tend to change cars every five years, and while I may not with my Mini, having a high trade in value is definitely a bonus.

From easiest and less is the following. A consideration many overlook is the radiator cap itself. If it does not maintain a specified pressure the system will run hotter. When water is under pressure the boiling point is raised. Many parts stores will test the cap for you for free. Caution is strongly advised to only remove the cap when the engine is cold. Best have a professional do this.

Mazda currently cannot meet the 2021 emission regulation in its home country of Japan. I am under the impression that they were hoping that this engine would allow them to do it, but so far only the base sedan with a stick manages to get under the mandated 96g co2 per km. they need their whole fleet to average that.

Toyota started building the first Celica in 1970, but the cars that will appeal to the young prospective buyer are models of the sixth (1993 1999) and seventh (1999 2006) generations. These are the newest Celicas, so they are the most common in the used car market and will have fewer miles on them.

I believe the glue that holds the whole thing together is DNVGL. They are the trusted, assurance provider that take away the anxiety from things like working with a Chinese company, an unknown startup, or onboarding new tech. In Vechain’s case, all 3 points are valid, so it would take A LOT more than just great tech and partnerships to onboard western companies like BMW. It would take someone that’s respected world wide, has a tremendous reputation of providing certifications, and trusted to deliver on their promise, and that party is DNVGL.

Driving directions are more detail oriented because the computer will ask for the city and state you are going to or one of your saved points. Then it will ask you for either a business or a specific address if you have one. The computer will then get your location through their 온라인카지노 GPS system and download the turn by turn directions to your vehicle’s computer. Once the download is complete the computer will tell you download is complete and that you may use your phone.

From race officials controlled by the defenders to the ability of the defenders to accept or reject any challenger, the stipulations the Cup holders had written for themselves were seen by many as the most biased and unsportsmanlike in the history of the event. Under these rules, the management of the 33rd America’s Cup would be anything but independent. Certainly, it would not be fair. While it was accepted that the America’s Cup pitch was usually skewed to some degree, the AC33 protocol was seen by many as a step too far. The trouble was that few knew how to address the issue to level the pitch.

After five or ten minutes of gently trying to persuade this piece of crap on wheels to navigate the icy road I give up. I reverse it into a passable imitation of a deliberate piece of parking it’s off to the side of the road, no longer blocking it and there is no hope of driving it anywhere or putting it back on her drive.

I’ve written hubs like, “Corporate Boards Are Glorified Thieves,” and yes, I know that the word “theifs” is misspelled (hey, even an unskilled political non elite opinion guy like me can be a sucker for a little keyword stuff). Another one I called, “The Jobless Are Not Lazy,” and another one is titled, “Another Example Of An Overpaid CEO,” which is on point about the whole concept of CEO pay, and severence packages which are akin to winning the lottery, but focuses on the exorbitant severence package former HP CEO Mark Hurd enjoyed after resigning his post due to the discovery of falsified expense reports to cover up an affair he had supposedly with a female contractor, and an accusation of sexual harassment.

I had someone slam on their breaks the other day on a fast road, fully stopped, no cars coming, waiting for 2 or 3 minutes until they put their indicator on, then turned. I’m glad I plan ahead when driving and have good reactions to idiots. I could go on forever

The second generation MR 2 (1989 1999) had very different styling and has been called a “poor man’s Ferrari” due to some aesthetic similarities between the Toyota and Ferrari’s 355/348. The US received two engine options: a 130 hp 2.0 L naturally aspirated I4 and a 200 hp turbocharged 2.0 L I4. For 1992 3, Toyota changed the suspension geometry to reduce “snap oversteer” which made the car safer to drive quickly and on the limit. If you’ve got experience driving sports cars and are looking for a car with a real edge to it, try to find one from the few years before this change. If you just want to be able to corner quickly and not make a fool of yourself, definitely look for a later version with the more forgiving handling. This is, for most, the best of the MR 2 generations to buy because it is newer, more powerful, and better looking than the first generation, but less expensive than third generation models. You’ll probably be looking at 5 12k for pricing, although there is always room for variation with individual cars. The turbos are going to be harder to find unmolested and will be more expensive, but if you can find the right car, it’s going to be much faster and more fun to drive than the still spectacular NA version.

Yesterday, “central locking system” button doesn’t work. Neither does the hazard button next to it. I checked all three fuses and they’re fine. WTF?! UPDATE: Not exactly sure how to explain what it is still, but apparently a little latch that is activated when you push the lock/hazard buttons is broken. My husband jerry rigged it with tape, but that’s only temporary. So now the little button casing just sits outside of its cubbyhole, and I use it that way. And why don’t the doors lock when you begin to drive anyway? Even my old Fords did that!

Seats that tend to fit well in the middle of back seats are the Sunshine Kids/Diono Radian, Britax convertibles, Graco MyRide, and Evenflo Triumph 65 or Momentum. Seats that allow bracing (forceful touching of the front seats) are Britax seats and SKJP/Diono Radians. Other seats that may fit well are the Maxi Cosi Pria 70 and First Years True Fit.

The second system is the mechanical standard. This is a rigid and comprehensive system that is unique to Germany, for reasons I can only ascribe to their culture. Germans simply require excellence in all things mechanical. Before you can register any vehicle (and this applies to registration renewals too), you will need to acquire a ‘Hauptuntersuchung’ (abbreviated to ‘HU’) certificate. This system is overseen by the Technischer berwachungs Verein (TV), a body that exists solely for this purpose. Obtaining the certificate involves a comprehensive safety check of the vehicle by a certified mechanic, covering everything operational on the car. This includes glass, wheels, engine, brakes, lights, chassis and more. The good news is that if a seller can provide you with this certificate, the car should be in reasonable mechanical condition. The bad news is that it almost always uncovers work that needs to be done before the car can be registered. It may sound draconian, but I actually find merit in this system because it maintains a safer road environment. On a peculiar note, you can find the same certification in elevators too. That random fact should give some comfort to those readers who have a fear of elevators descending faster than the speed of an ex pat on the autobahn.

Hardware Make sure the glides are of a good quality and are soft close (a standard these days). Ask your retailer how they handle requests for broken glides and hardware a year or years down the road. As for hinges, are they self closing? Are they of good quality? The hinge on your door actuates a lot in the course of its life, and you do not want to be constantly adjusting the hinges or replacing them.

TLDR: BMW lease gone wrong, left with $825/mo payment and seeking options to get rid of the carStop leasing luxury cars you can pay for in cash. Just leasing a BMW is screwing yourself. You get to pay for the most expensive part of the depreciation with nothing to show for.

Phone featuresOnce your phone is paired correctly to the vehicle and you have your Sync account activated, you can use all the Sync and services. One of the phone services that is not compatible with my particular phone is the text messaging. The Sync system will read your text messages aloud to you if it is compatible with your phone. Refer to the website for a list of compatible text messaging phones. I know that most of the Motorola Razr phones are compatible with the text messaging feature.

Does anyone have suggestions for good, fuel efficient winter vehicles? And is owning two vehicles worth it for the large amount of fuel savings (keeping in mind we’re in Ontario where gas/diesel is more expensive, although prices haven’tbeen too bad as of late!) We already spend about $600 a month on fuel as it is, we live in a small town and have to drive 40+ min to get anywhere.

Concepts like that should be easy for anyone who had a job to see. Just look at the efficiencies at your workplace and calculate how much time is wasted. Now apply that to the entire economy and see why our problems are not solvable by a one sentence economics strategies pushed by basically every candidate ever.

Kawasaki would rather stay and dominate WSBK with Rea and the ZX 10R. Also MotoGP is much more expensive to become competitive in than WSBK. If I recall properly, there is a cap on how much work that can be done with their production motorcycles. I think it is 250k? That’s pennies compared to a prototype engine, chassis, and hiring engineering teams for the spec electronics hardware/software.Also considering the funds available for Kawasaki vs Honda, Yamaha, Ducati, Suzuki, etc, Kawasaki HQ sees WSBK domination a better ROI than becoming midpack in MotoGP for more than four times the cost of WSBK.BMW just doesn’t care for racing as much as it’s fellow manufacturers.

Warhol collaborated with a variety of people in his projects, and liked to surround himself with bohemian eccentrics. Andy Warhol was openly gay at a time when few admitted to being gay. David Bowie admits to being influenced by Warhol, and during the 1970’s, Warhol concentrated on portrait paintings of celebrities. Warhol was the founder of Interview Magazine, and his studio in New York, called The Factory, was a great meeting place for intellectuals, play rights, drag queens, wealthy patrons, and his much loved celebrities. dollars in 1963. He loved to party at Studio 54 and other spots where the elite loved to play. A lot of people called him a “business artist,” but Andy Warhol had a deep love affair with glamour, and sometimes even glamorous people use the same products regular people do.

I need REAL advice/suggestions on a carseat for our first LO. I though that after months of research we’d found our perfect infant seat. The Britax Chaperone. but two things now force us to regroup: 1 its the only seat that Britax now makes in China ( though we will still go with the Boulevard for our next seat, since its super safe 100% made in the US, but too big for an infant )

Subaru WRX: The WRX was a bit pricy for this list, but it makes it to the honorable mention list due to the great performance and rally heritage offered by the ’90s Subaru sports sedan/wagon. With a turbocharged flat 4 and Subaru’s legendary AWD system, the WRX will be quick on any surface and is relatively easy to modify for more power.

It’s not just that it’s on one screen. The Hearthstone UI and animations are brilliant and under appreciated in terms of how they help with understandability. Consider the animation when a new card is drawn, for example. It comes out and at the apex of its arc, it slows down quite a bit. That combined with a strong preference for brief card text makes it easy to read as it’s drawn. Same when your opponent plays a card: the card flips over for and hangs above the board for a few seconds so you can read it.

On the Tesla you need things like wipers, alignments, filters, tire rotation, brake fluid, battery coolant. From what I understand, one should expect a battery coolant service visit to run in the $450 650 range every 4yrs. Anyway, those were the kinds of things that went into the maintenance cost estimates.

Someone eventually pays for it.It was, as the experts here knew, the 12V battery. Replaced on warranty, and all is well.Lingering issue is the battery died in 30 months and 8500 miles. If that an expected life, I hope there a source for non OEM batteries at some point. Near as I can tell, no one else sells a battery that fits/works in the i3.Otherwise, this is a great car.

But as I said I never driven it so I not sure. Both are fairly even matched in terms of pace though.I just hijacking this post here to make a quick point for anyone else who is considering jumping into GTE first;Have you ever done multiclass racing before?If the answer to this is no, then you should not be in a faster class until you are competent at driving in the slowest class, IMO.There a lot of people in iLMS who jump into the GTE class after racing in IMSA without having experienced a faster class before, which leads to.

This is a stunning car, especially for a relatively small manufacturer price. It’s fast, handles well, is super fun to drive, and is very rare. You could build a basic one up for $55,000 but if you want something to compete with the fastest in the world, look to spend $80,000+.

Plus, I’ve had a fascination with all things German for quite some time. German was my college major for a couple years, back when I thought of being a UN interpreter. I have (or had) family living in Germany, and I have backpacked through the cities there. I thought I would live there one day. I heard angels sing when I stood in the Olympic Village and gazed upon the four cylindrical pillars of BMW Headquarters in Munich.

Decide what car seats you want before you buy the car. That way you can actually take a seat with you and install it and test it out in the car. Much easier to fit the car to the seat than the seat to the car (although it’s ok either way). Check out leg room most infant seats take up a decent amount of front to back room because of the recline needed for an infant seat.

Idea 8: Teens Make Money by Buying and Selling ItemsIf a teen or child is a thrifty shopper, this might just be the job for him or her. bfakn.club This gig requires a passion for shopping, the ability to know which things people will want to buy, and the ability to find steals and deals. The items can be found in several thrifty places such as:

Usually, in vehicles that have a hatchback style trunk (with an open seat back) you will find the anchor on the back of the seat and sometimes in the ceiling (for the middle seat position). If the trunk is closed, you typically find the anchor spot behind the headrest. I know you will be tired, but installing the seat properly is very important. If the person picking you up doesn’t know whet to find the anchors in their vehicle, ask them to look it up in their manual as soon as they can.

But there was still more to this Cup of extremes. When the teams’ two boats appeared on the water the sailing public drew breath. Two of the biggest, most advanced multihulls that the sailing world had ever seen suddenly changed the mood among Cup followers. At last, the conversation switched from the frustration of complex court hearings, to that of the prospect of a spectacular battle of two behemoths on the water.

I searched old posts and came across a bunch with the BMW X3 and Diono seats in 3 across, but I need RF (rear facing) seat outboard for YDS. DH (dear husband) is looking at the X3 for his next vehicle, and I’m fairly certain there is nothing I can do to dissuade him. He needs to get a new car within the next month, realistically.

But it not 100% necessary if you a short distance commuter.Anything else you should worry about?Tires. They a little expensive (more than $150 per tire). Make sure the car you buy has a relatively fresh set.Range. This thing is going to get between 60 and 80 miles of range, but you won hit that 80 mark outside of perfect conditions (45mph, good weather, no AC/heat usage, eco++ mode).Realistic “safe” range under real world heavy AC/heat use is going to be closer to 60 miles.

Another that can be considered is the heater core. Usually if that is the case then the floor carpet will be getting damp or wet on the passenger side. An intake manifold leak results with water in the oil pan. One trick as a partial check for that is to look at the dip stick. If the oil is a muddy brown there is a chance there is water in the oil.

15) Beto O All talk no substance. You absolutely could tell he way out of his depth, and had to rely on stories and being relatable. That great for a House rep, OK for a Senator, absolutely not enough for President. Presidents must have past results and plan for future results and a story is far from both. He didn even bother adapting after he visibly realized his strategy wasn working and just gave up.

First said Tesla couldn do it, Next they said no one wants it. Now they have to play catchup from a 10 year lead making them not able to make a competitive car. Honestly other EV makers should be over the moon they can sell any at all. Those poor customers don know how bad of a choice they made by not going with Tesla. For all other automakers the situation is dire and getting worse for them by the day.

It was a mess I accidentally punted one off because he stopped (relatively) on the apex of a fast corner after he went up the inside.It shouldn be that way. If you slower than a GT3 in a GTE, you should be in a GT3. Driven properly, a GTE car is much faster than a GT3 car, and more challenging to drive.Thank you for the detailed response! So I guess I a little confused about IMSA.

You have to learn respect for others first. it helps you to become a better person and a person that respects rules.i bought a video that will certainly help him with this but he refuses to watch it at all. his dad and i stopped taking him out for driving lessons until he proves to us he is capable of respect for others and the responsiblity he should be capable of.

4 years ago I discovered Bogleheads and since then, I’ve followed the 3 fund passive index funds approach and turned all my attention to improving in my professional space. It turns my stomach thinking back how much more savings I would have today if had cashed out at the top or even if I just stuck to 3 fund index investing from the beginning. Today I still have over $100k in carried over cap losses I been writing off in my tax returns $3k at a time for many more years to come and I consider that tuition from the school of hard knocks and reminders of my hubris.

This doesn sound like a big thing but it a huge thing in the corners and probably the reason I keep buying BMWs. If it a pre 08 2 litre your going to be paying about 720 a year for tax I think. Your insurance will be dependant on your circumstances.The one thing I will say is to try to find out if the engine has been been mapped.

Starting in 1981 there’s the DeLorean DMC 12, which was pretty much a classic the moment it came off the line. Then in the mid 1980’s there’s the Buick Grand National (and even better the Grand National GNX). A black muscle car from Buick that is sure to be desirable well into the future.

I’d like to hear some ideas from other Hubbers. Given those criteria (15+ years old, good condition, under $20,000), what vehicle would you buy and why?Ross Kposted 8 years agoI would recommend a Mercedes E Class from 90 94. These cars were over engineered and built like tanks. Nothing like Benz’s of today.

In his later years Jung lived mostly in isolation, and many feel he missed Freud. He did go to Taos, New Mexico to visit Chief Mountain Lake of the Taos Pueblos. He also visited Eastern Africa in 1925 to try to envision “primitive psychology” in a better way. He learned that what he saw there was much like what he learned from his own life and that of those everywhere. At the end of his life, Jung became interested in UFO’s, and tried to decide if they had archetypal meaning or other psychological significance. All in all he was a very interesting man, who added much knowledge and understanding of our consciousness.

So it basically like a corolla in a bmw shell the way I look at it, you are only paying for a nice interior and a bmw badge on it. I just don see the point in buying a performance luxury car if it not sporty. It like buying a new Challenger opting for the v6 instead of the 5.7 or 6.4 392 for an extra 5 6k.

Around this time it occurs to me to just ring Nuna as there might be something wrong with the seat. They tell me that the seat isn’t compatible with the 3 series, 4 series, X1 and one I can’t remember. Well I’m shocked honestly that it wouldn’t just fit any car, especially a new car!

The car: a BMW i3. It has only two seats in the back so width isn’t an issue, but front to back size is. Also, the back doors are suicide doors, so I’ll need to be able to undo the latch connectors and pivot the seat 90 degrees to remove my child while he’s rear facing. I’m concerned that when the seat reaches its upper limits for latch and we need to switch to belt installation, it will get too difficult to operate.

Hard work. Yes. That’s exactly what success is supposed to be made of. Grit and conviction. And I’m thinking, some of those guys who are driving those BMW’s and Mercedes just have to be one of those guys. One of those guys who worked hard, who busted his ass, who got it all done, and who took on the challenge like a matador takes on a bull with grit, conviction, and a bit of risk. If not, any of us busting our asses is for moot. If not, then the idea that hard work pays is a great big lie, and I simply don’t want to believe that. I need to not believe that.

However, there is a firm that does such things as a matter of course, that finishes every car by hand and, during its 52 year history, has seldom produced more than 1,500 vehicles in any 12 month period. And, with allocations to any particular market never exceeding thelow hundreds, the chances of another of these cars pulling up beside yours are extremely small.

Meanwhile BMW has that plastic aluminum everywhere and the black plastic everything. I’d bet it’s the most plastic of the 4 brands. But don’t take my word for it. The CEO is on the verge of being fired for low profits and the answer has been lower overhead and cut motorsports.

The second generation Eclipse (1995 1999) came with a number of different engines, both naturally aspirated and turbocharged. The RS and GS models came with a 140 hp Chrysler engine, and the GS Spyder came with a slightly larger (2.4 L instead of 2.0 L) Mitsubishi engine. These trim levels, in addition to the GS T (with a 210 hp 2.0 L Mitsubishi powerplant) came with FWD. All second generation Eclipses came with either a four speed automatic or a five speed manual for drivers who prefer to use both feet. Mitsubishi used smaller turbos in the second generation compared to the first in order to reduce turbo lag, so the boost from the turbo will come more quickly. Convertible versions of the GS and GS T were also built. Expect to spend anywhere from $3,500 $10,00 depending on the trim (it’ll be more for the turbo), mileage, and condition.

Furthermore, I’m curious as to how people in Europe and other countries (where the average vehicle isn’t an SUV or larger) get by with their car seats. I’m assuming their “standards” must be much lower because how else would they be able to fit American sized car seats in their small cars?

Now, that said, I am not saying that the police report is 100% full of shit, and it may in fact be more representative of what actually happened, but from personal and professional experience, I can tell you that if you take them as the absolute truth, there a good chance you going to be misled.

Depending on how they puzzle, you may be able to put your 18 mo RF (rear facing) in the RA w/ the RN in the middle and the infant seat outboard. It’s something you may have to play around with. If it fits in between the two front seats, the RN makes a great RF (rear facing) seat, too.

Maybe get an older Mazda Miata if you want a sports car. Those are seriously a ton of fun to drive. Take the difference and put it in a mutual fund of some kind and maybe go on a vacation before you enter the workforce. Experiences trump things anyway..

These things can be expected in an older vehicle. But come on, this car is barely five years old! And only three years old when I got it! And it’s German!! I now have new appreciation for every Ford product I ever owned or leased. I miss you Escort, Probe, Mercury Cougar, Mountaineer and yes, I even miss you, Taurus.

Really? You never used the facilities at a gas station? Let be real, we all know what we talking about here. Gas you can pump quick and get 300 500+ miles of range (I would routinely get 550 miles highway on a tank in my manual Accord), EVs are not there right now.

The 110v LVL1 charger is really only intended for occasional use (referred to as the OUC often.) If you have the means it highly recommended you get a LVL2 charger. It will allow you to precondition the battery as well as the cabin. Which is very helpful with range especially in extreme weather.

The 5 series is a real drivers car and feeds road data better than the Benz of the same years.The Porsche is brilliant for parts delivery straight from the factory and are a delight to work on if you love fine German engineering.I have rebuilt a 911 carrera motor in the middle of the Northern Territory jungle.

Which was precisely what happened after a successful defence by the Swiss team Alinghi in 2007, when a challenge from a Spanish club was accepted and a protocol for the next America’s Cup, the 33rd, was hastily drawn up. When the details were released it was clear that the Spanish club had accepted rules that grossly favoured Alinghi.

London based fan Peter Simms has owned his 1976 R90S for 30 years, and has ridden it more than 200,000 miles. “I use it virtually every day, which, given its age, bears testament to the superb build quality. I have travelled all over Europe on it and can’t think of a bike, new or old, that could possibly replace it. It’s comfortable, fast, beautifully made and has bags of character.”

Nobody really knows how Lexus did it, but the fast revving 4.8 Litre V10 in the LFA was so fast that they had to replace a traditional rev counter with dials with an electronic one. An extremely futuristic exhaust and cockpit ensured that the LFA was literally a car that was one of a kind and anyone lucky enough to be able to afford and buy it was indeed buying and preserving a piece of unique art and history.

When you’re a conservative such as I am, it’s really tough to stand up and be for the little guy. Really tough. Because the fact of the matter is, as soon as you start to say, “Hey, the guy on the bottom needs a little recognition for his contribution too,” all of sudden the accusations begin to fly.

When older, Jung was drafted into the army as a doctor in Switzerland, and always encouraged his patients to read. He later married and had 5 children, but it was an open marriage, at least from his side. Jung met Freud in Vienna in 1906. They had an intense intellectual relationship which lasted for about six years, as Jung was really interested in Freud’s book, The Interpretation of Dreams. Jung was about 30 and Freud about 50 at the time of their meeting, so although Jung was influenced by Freud, he was also open to many other new ideas in the psychoanalytical world. They discussed introverts and extroverts at the last conference they attended together, in 1913.

The Audi TT coupe does not have enough driver leg support. I am 5′ 7″ and had gotten used to very comfortable bucket seats in the Infiniti G35. The TT seats are shorter and do not extend far enough forward to provide the appropriate level of thigh support. I’ve tried adjusting the seat in every possible position to no avail. I also spent hours Googling to see if I could find seat extenders that would work with the TT and could not find any.

June 02 2017EmailTwitterPinterestFacebookDedicated BMW owners always knew. They have long and very happy memories when it comes to the big 8 Series coups of the 1990s, and there was always talk that Bayerische Motoren Werke would revive the Series 8 legacy, reinvent it. Now there is a powerful, beautiful new Concept 8 Series sports coupfrom one of the world’s great car makers.

I believe the glue that holds the whole thing together is DNVGL. They are the trusted, assurance provider that take away the anxiety from things like working with a Chinese company, an unknown startup, or onboarding new tech. In Vechain’s case, all 3 points are valid, so it would take A LOT more than just great tech and partnerships to onboard western companies like BMW. It would take someone that’s respected world wide, has a tremendous reputation of providing certifications, and trusted to deliver on their promise, and that party is DNVGL.

Subaru WRX: The WRX was a bit pricy for this list, but it makes it to the honorable mention list due to the great performance and rally heritage offered by the ’90s Subaru sports sedan/wagon. With a turbocharged flat 4 and Subaru’s legendary AWD system, the WRX will be quick on any surface and is relatively easy to modify for more power.

I been researching about the F30 328D in North America and I curious what the ownership costs are. So far I read there are a couple issues such as: NOx sensor going bad (Been trying to find DIY guides, but there doesn seem to be any) Transfer case going bad (Replacing with an used unit a bad idea?)

I forgot to mention that the “kit” 55 200 and 55 300 lenses are actually fine little lenses. They lightweight and compact (especially the 55 200) and take perfectly fine pictures (although the 55 300 may be a little soft past 200mm from my very limited experience with them). They big thing is they don focus as quickly and surely as the bigger lenses with the true AF S ring motors in them. I found my old 55 200 VR useless for stuff like football with lots of chaotic movement and disappearing subjects but for more predictable sports like tennis and baseball in the daytime, it did pretty well and I got a lot of good shots with mine over the years your hit rate isn as high though because you miss things because the lens just couldn rack to where you needed it fast enough. I do recommend VR on these lenses as they don have the mass of the bigger lenses and don damp vibrations naturally as much which makes the image in the viewfinder (and what the AF sensor is seeing) jump around a lot more, even if you shooting at speeds that don normally require VR.

The car: a BMW i3. It has only two seats in the back so width isn’t an issue, but front to back size is. Also, the back doors are suicide doors, so I’ll need to be able to undo the latch connectors and pivot the seat 90 degrees to remove my child while he’s rear facing. I’m concerned that when the seat reaches its upper limits for latch and we need to switch to belt installation, it will get too difficult to operate.

No government official ‘deserves’ an expensive car. Many Nazis were also just following the rules! (an exaggerated example, but illustrates my point) If you can’t see the problem with purchasing expensive cars for the sake of appearances, with the majority of the country in poverty, you need to open your eyes!

Bovensiepen junior says the typical Alpina buyer is a highly successful entrepreneur who often covers a high annual mileage (30,000 or more per year is usual) anddemands a level of exclusivity beyond the personalisation offered by top luxury marques. “If youlook back 20 years, we sold fewer than half as manycars as we do today,” he explains. “Production hasgradually increased because our portfolio of models is much wider than it used to be in the past, for example, we didn’t offer an SUV or any diesel engines but it’s also because more people are looking for something special. That said, we still make fewer thanhalf the number of cars that Rolls Royce does. Wehavea verypersonal connection with all our customers andwe want to maintain that.

The thing about PHEVs though is that they are mostly a cheap way for manufacturers to get around emission standards by being able to leave the ICE off for a good part of the test cycle, as well as making their cars useable in EV only zones (in some european cities).

The America’s Cup has always been an expensive trophy to compete for but it has rarely been fair. If you win the Cup you host the next event and, to a large extent, control the rules once a challenger comes along and throws down the gauntlet. When they do, and there is no fixed time frame in which they have to do so or when the next America’s Cup match will take place, it is up to the defending yacht club and that of the challenger to agree the terms, venue and dates for the next event. But since 1983, when the Australians won the Cup and ended the Americans’ dominance which had lasted since 1851, the longest winning streak in sporting history international interest in winning the historic trophy surged. Unfortunately, in the scramble to become a challenger and help form the rules for the next Cup, some yacht clubs allowed themselves to accept one sided terms from the defender.

She reached for her headphones, deciding music would help her think. She grabbed at empty air, remembering that she had been wearing them when the explosion happened. Where did they go? She examined the cockpit desperately, eventually spotting them wedged behind one of her foot pedals. Lucky. I hadn tried moving yet. I might have crushed them otherwise.” With her music recovered, she pondered her dilemma.

I chime in here because I have extensive experience with both. The M235/240 has a superior powertrain. It smoother, less peaky, and revs more freely. Body control is also superior on the BMW through the corners, but it does ride harsher 바카라사이트 than the Benz due to the short wheelbase. The Benz has a hugely superior EPS system and turns in sharper, making it feel like a more aggressive car. The BMW is a lot more playful in the corner, though, where the Benz can be overly neutral.

Set up your Sync accountThe first and most important thing you need to do to utilize all the Sync services is set up your Sync account on your computer. You will be asked to name your vehicle and to select the dashboard layout of your vehicle. From your Sync account screen, you can then view your vehicle health report which you have generated from the vehicle itself. Other features you can customize from your Sync account screen include your favorites (specific stock quotes, sports teams, news headlines, horoscopes, etc. You can also set up saved points in your driving and directions list. A few of my saved points include my home address and some of my friends and family addresses. Although I do typically know how to get to my home address and those friends and family members addresses, I may be in an unfamiliar place and need to be directed back to those locations.

The great recession is still in progress and till it’s gonna be there for quite sometime. It has affected each and everyone of us. But I was wondering what are the things that we learned (or are still learning) from the meltdown. I personally have learned two things;1. We all must have savings, no.

Alinghi had chosen to build a 101ft super lightweight catamaran, while BMW Oracle Racing opted for a 114ft trimaran with a 바카라사이트 giant solid wing mast in place of a more conventional sail. Both boats were impressive in their own rights and could sail at three times the wind speed, but BMW Oracle’s USA 17 particularly so, its wing taller than the total wingspan of a Boeing 747 at 223ft, the largest rigid wing ever built. Indeed, the technology on display propelled the event into completely new territory.

I’ve often thought there should be a minimum age requirement for police. At least 35 years old before they can carry a gun along with very strict, psychological high standards. I have scars older than 20 years. A 20 year old cannot make life and death decisions coupled with the wisdom that is only acquired through length of life. Citizen’s lives are in the balance: elderly, bystanders, children, people that are emotionally distraught, etc, and the person that holds their lives in the balance could have been watching cartoons and drinking Nestle Quick, 5 years prior. That to me is concerning,

Not only that, my Probe needed an MOT and would not have passed since the speedo and odometer had broken. Ford no longer support the Probe and Mazda (The probe 2.5 24 valve V6 is basically an overweight MX 6) are not too enamoured of selling parts for it either. It would have cost more than the car was worth to repair, so it was time to move on.

I love my Britax. I decided to go for the Boulevards because the extra side impact protection was really important to me and the possibility of keeping baby rearfacing longer than Roundabout because of the extra length. I am amazed. Since I have friends who still have kids rearfacing at 3 in Blvd, I am not overly concerned. If my son outgrows it before I am ready to turn around I will research other options at that point. You cannot go wrong with any of the Birtax seats.

If you charge it home it really depends on what you are replacing it with. Many people trade in hybrids or other eco cars for these, which do not run on premium. The fuel savings are there, if you charge at home, but at current gas prices it isn a huge difference. The difference in tire replacement costs and insurance costs more than make up that difference in fuel savings over a more economical car.

Also, compare offers for the same car across various dealerships near you. Is one dealer offering the car for $22k OTD? But another one closer to you is only offering $23k OTD? Then throw a counteroffer at the second dealer for $22k OTD, knowing full well that $22k OTD is an achievable price (since first dealer already offered it).

Pacer Equipment OptionsThe Pacer was a little sparse on equipment though with an extras list that would make even present day Audi or BMW blush. Automatic transmission was an extra $299 and air conditioning $399.95 more than a tenth of the base price of $3,299. An 8 track AM/FM radio was $239.

I not found the magic consolidated app or map. In the midwest we have Greenlots showing up at BP stations, EV Connect in some Public Garages, and other locally based rideshare systems like BlueIndy which also allow for charger accounts (you can park and charge in open spaces). You might also look to see where your local government fleets are parking often, these vehicles have chargers in garages that are also accessible to the public.

The Engine Control Module measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust system via the oxygen sensors and makes adjustments by adding more or less fuel to the mixture. When the adjustments become too large to maintain the proper mixture, the fault codes P0171 and P0174 are logged. They are logged together, since in V8 and V6 (and more rarely in some 4 cylinder and straight 6 cylinder cars) the cylinders are split into two separate groups, or banks.

Wow, was the car undriveable when you got the drivetrain error? Just took possession of the i3 today, first thing I noticed was gas tank cover stuck, though openable with green latch, needless to say noone at the Carvana knew how that worked. So far I have driven it to drain the battery enough to kick the Rex in emission mode. It sounded a bit louder than another Rex engine on a i3 I had test drove before. Other than that it drives smooth, handling the nation capitol fresh pot holes and uneven roads pretty well. HK sounds is a bit tiny but bass is deep and accurate, my kids fit in the back.

Not everyone is willing to do this. If you not a DIY there not really any way to own an agog BMW inexpensively unless you get extremely lucky. It a game of odds, maybe one in one hundred 3 series are as reliable as your average Lexus IS 350. I much more comfortable rolling the dice on a Lexus.

It was something that a doctor had said to Carolina Muscle at a gym, as they worked out alongside one another, that got him rolling things around in his head. As Carolina put it, “He was explaining his viewpoint that he pays too much in taxes. and that the poor and indigent belong that way, they deserve no help from society or more importantly, him. He says he worked hard to get where he is, and that ” they should too.””

Thank you for your reply Nightstorm_NoS, my budget was 1/2 off that, and I know people are going to say that if you have a low budget you should steer clear from a BMW, electric or not. Every one in my neighborhood it seems has now taken delivery of their model 3 has they are all over the place. It a cool car but it is by no mean a city car, which is what I need. We have a ICE Suv for long range, for now. I have taken delivery of the i3 REX and I can say for sure, I would have been frustrated but the Bev version. Consider it cheating but the Rex extender has proven so far to be worth the extra $$. I coded the car and I have driven with 174 miles of range, light foot and taking advantage of steep downhills with battery Soc hold. I can charge or I can pump, having flexibility is sure sweet.

Yeah that ridiculous. The scary thing to me throughout the whole process is that it seems like they really have no power to deviate from the rules. Months ago they could change the tires before they sell you the car or give you the paint change for free, now they can even do that. Multiple cars floated by me that matched everything I wanted, but had sport wheels instead of Aero.

The dash browsing for phone operations is inactive whenever the vehicle is in motion. This is a safety feature. To make a phone call when the vehicle is in motion, press the “voice” button located on the steering wheel. The computer will say the current Sync setting along with “please say a command”. In my case, the computer always says, “USB, please say a command.” because I always have my iPod connected through the vehicle’s USB port. After the computer asks for a command, you will say “phone”. Speak loudly and clearly enough for the computer to understand you. The computer will then say, “phone. please say a command”. You will then say, “call so and so”. Sammy,, Amy), the computer will give you a list of your phone book entries and ask to to select one using a number. “Say one for Sammy, two for, etc.” Once you tell the computer which phone number to dial, it will dial the number. You can also dial numbers not in your phone book by saying “dial” and the phone number you wish to dial.

I think there is too much fuss going on about, but since you commented you might as well admit yours kinda was wrong there. You think basketball but there is volleyball, some think tennis but there is ping pong. Making same advance ladders in two different sports and similarsing them (in whatever, prize $, or reward potential) does not guarantee less popular to suddenly become on par with the other.

The separation between the reality of gamers and “the real life” are blending, so much so that the gaming marketplace is underserved at the root level, the gamers themselves. Plair is building a sustainable and disruptive gaming ecosystem to empower its members, providing them the necessary means to earn from their gamer lifestyle. Plair wants to help these gamers. At Plair, we embrace the choice individuals make to live a gamer’s lifestyle, we want to do what we can to serve the group of individuals picking living a virtual gaming life over “RL”.

Depending on the features included (upgraded infotainment, leather, etc,) that either “a good price” or “a steal.” Find out which “package” it has. (Mega, Giga, Tera.) And if it BMW Certified Preowned. That gets some extra factory warranty.It comes with a portable “occasional use cable” that is slow, but it works in a pinch.

Using the same chassis and suspension as the MK4 Roadster, this one not only adds a roof but probably the sweetest rear on any car ever made! It was the result of some serious aero work done to beat Ferrari. Sadly the car never went anywhere, because the year after, Ford not only moved Shelby across to the GT40 program but sunk their race budget into beating Ferrari on European soil.

Although I think commercial drivers can log that kind of time legally in a day, and pickups actually are used for commercial hauling (at least I seen it here in the oilfield area, pickups can get places that 18 wheelers can they are part of the solution then? Many manufacturers are working towards fully electrified lineups (as in, every car will be PHEV or battery, including Volvo and Mercedes that I aware of, others I sure as well).

Not “too raw” at all, I did several 3000 Mile road trips with it and I never had an issue with not being comfortable. I daily drove it for 3 years with no issue. The only issue I ever had was the “angry screaming racecar” which attracted too much attention and it wasn suitable for the snow in CO. Also, people in the US suck. 2 years in Germany with it, no issues. First week back in the US someone door dinged me even though I parked in BFE. I miss it but I don will admit, if I kept the M2 it would be less stressful than having a US spec 3 in Germany for road trips and likely more fun on the ring again but take the good with the bad. I still take the 3 over it again any day. Side note, currently being ICE by an Audi.

Yeah the concerns I have lie in the basics. For example, there’s discussion on TMC about things like the steering wheel not being straight at “neutral” on many 3s. To most people this is a small detail. Many may never notice. But to me, as someone who cares a lot about driving and precision, that would be an issue. So if SCs say it’s not a big deal, and owners say it’s not a big deal, all because the product isn’t aimed at enthusiasts, then that’s a potentially greater issue. It means, among other things, that the car isn’t for me.

She found out during the filming of Evita that she was pregnant with her daughter Lourdes, with Carlos Leon, her personal trainer. Madonna is not a terrific singer, or the most beautiful woman around, but she knows how to market herself, and how to handle her money. When she wrote her 1998 album Ray of Light, she was interested in Eastern Mysticism and the Kabbalah, and claims that her perception of life changed quite a bit.

Have you ever seen a Parking, Tow Away Zone sign? What do you think would happen if you parked your BMW there? Do you really think the property owner would bother to call BMW roadside assistance to tow your car away? Or would he just have Cletus drag it away like it does with every other car on the planet that he tows with the car in park and brakes on? Same thought experiment applies if somebody gets there BMW repo Same thought experiment applies if the police drag away an abandoned BMW. Same thought experiment applies if a BMW gets in an accident and is disabled/locked up. IOW, towing cars in park is a solved problem, and it happens all over the country hundreds, if not thousands, of times a day.

No, you retard! I used the word that I did because it had the exact meaning that I wanted to use! How fucking difficult is that to understand that someone can use words that portray the exact idea they want to portray? Like for fuck sake, specific words have better uses in specific contexts. Stop trying to impart your own bullshit on me. I done with your terrible examples, just goddamned stop trying this. You are wrong, and always will be wrong, because I used the word with the exact meaning I wanted. Not the word that you goddamn want. The rules of language are very clear, you don get to decide them.

You need to have it wired into your garage (since you need a high power 240v outlet), and you need a charger to go with that outlet. Usually costs $300 $800 to run the wiring depending on how far your garage is from the electrical box (but it can get much much higher if you need to upgrade your whole electrical box/service to handle the extra power).

The Gallardo is available with a 5 Litre V10 setup and the only one with the option of 4 wheel drive to give ground hugging handling on the road and the track and bellows a growl from its exhaust that’s louder than any Ferrari and is also available in the most outlandish colour combinations out there. With 0 100 KPH times quicker than the R8 and the McLaren, it is not the most fuel efficient supercar in its segment but has the feel of ‘passion’ and ‘zest’ which can sometimes lack in even the 458.

It Fairweather fans more than anything. Every single fanbase will sit thru God awful traffic to watch a winner, except one. Their attendance barely went up the year during and after their WS run. Everyone laughs at Dodgers fans for leaving early to beat traffic but at least they got there in the first place.

Last year, Maserati produced 42,100 vehicles, Bentley11,023 and Ferrari 8,014. Even Rolls Royce turned out more than 4,000. Granted, all of the above offer personalisation services that promise to lend a touch of individuality to standard models. But it’s often abridge too far to ask for a specially tuned engine, anuprated gearbox, reworked suspension, bespoke wheels and performance enhancements that make the car faster than standard and nicer to drive and also contrive to make it more economical.

Gas Trips The money spent at gas stations. This includes gas expenses, air freshners, filling air. Now, these expenses are hard to track and I used mint to pull the information. The money spent at gas station might have been spent on chips and gum as well, and there is no way for me to know now. And so while the gas trip number may not be exact, but it is pretty close. I always use Premium 93 grade.

But by your measures it would be easy for you to write a bulletproof regulation for level 4 vehicles right now. Because maybe the first will be somewhat available in 3 5 years (maybe). You can also choose any different topic including fast changing technology and define a set of rules today which will be valid in 5 years.

On top of that, all the circlejerking about Blizzard in this thread is also really aggravating. “After Diablo Immortal, this is the last straw. Fuck you, Blizzard, I out.” Blizzard has all but said publicly they working on Diablo 4, but that not good enough I guess. They also have to not work on anything else you personally think you might not like. If they are working on Diablo 4, but aren far enough along to have anything to show, but they 바카라사이트 also paying a third party developer to make a mobile game, and that mobile game is much farther along, why shouldn they show it? And every idiot Diablo fan in this thread talking shit will fucking download it and play the shit out of it, too.

I enjoyed my Infiniti, but after four years of operating a rear wheel drive car in snowy New England, I decided that my next car had to be either front wheel drive or all wheel drive. So, I was very excited to learn that Audi now had a super powerful, 3.2 liter, all wheel drive version of the TT.

Assembly While the cam locks are somewhat avoidable in the import cabinets, there are a few that offer a true dado assembly and require glues and fasteners that are nailed or screwed on. Some even use pocket screws to hold the cabinet together. While this seems like a minor point, it’s actually huge. Over time, as wood expands and contracts and cabinet contents shift, inferior construction will almost always lead to separation of cabinet panels, cabinets peeling from the wall and other shocking developments. There is one American Made RTA cabinet (made by Conestoga Wood Specialties) that even offers a really unique sliding dovetail technology where the wood panels (top/bottom and sides) dovetail together so that the cabinet literally cannot fall apart once assembled.

So what do you need on top of the $20,000 asking price? Not much really. Of course, you need the engine, transmission, and rear end. There are plenty of brand new or second hand options on that. You need original Ford headers, but not the rest of the exhaust. You need wheels and tyres, but there are so many options as this car uses the Mustang bolt pattern. Next is paint, which, once again, is totally up to you! Last, you need a fuel pump and battery. All in all, you could build one up for $25,000 upwards.

BMW’s designers draw inspiration from areas such as architecture and contemporary interior design. It is a prodigious effort of creation, relaying back to Munich every advance observed in new technology. Sometimes ideas arrive as “old tech”, sketches in a notebook from someone’s travels. All this input is refined by the design team.

People here are different. In MN there are so many of us struggling, it’s depressing. Hell, I moved in with my aunt and uncle thinking they had it good; a nice house in the best city in the state, she is an accountant, he stays home. I really thought they had the good life. After I moved in, I discovered they’ve had to spend tens of thousands to repair the house; the entire east wall was rotten and so is a large chunk of the roof, the floorboards upstairs and carpeting in the basement were shot to hell, and whoever installed the electrical wires in the house screwed up big time. He doesn’t work because he’s on disability, having lost most of his cognitive thinking and reasoning, and she works as many hours as she can to make up the difference. Turns out I’m helping them way more than I ever thought I could. I help him fix the house during the day, I bought groceries for everyone today, and just by being here, my son has helped cheer both of them up so much. Everyone’s truly struggling.

I would like to thank Michael Cotton for his reporting in motorsport for decades since the Ford GT first won Le Mans (that far!). Without his reporting, the huge bulk of the inital Group C research in this post will most likely be lost or hidden in magazines that we still can find. I remember the difficulties of tracking down a certain issue of Autosport magazine for accounts on what happened/announced durring the meeting in 1989. Only to find out that I got Autocar magazine instead. Yeah.

In the rare occurrence that a challenger is found to be invalid (in this instance, the Spanish Club Nautico Espaol de Vela for not meeting the designated defender requirements), the Deed of Gift that outlines the rules of the competition for the Cup dictates that the next valid challenger (in this case the GGYC) is the one to be accepted. No further yacht clubs can issue challenges and a challenger series does not take place. The Deed of Gift makes provision for such disputes by appointing the New York Supreme Courts as arbiters.

What I saw from my numbers was that the Tesla does cost less to operate. But when I consider the additional up front costs and added insurance, it not quite competitive with Civics (or Accords) yet. Especially compared to the hybrids and/or if one doesn drive a lot. Of course, with different energy prices, different driving rates, etc, things change.

I have owned a Mini Cooper for four years. I thoroughly researched the brand before buying it, and I did not want to write an article until I felt experienced and knowledgeable about what vehicle had to offer. This article will cover my experience owning this car. I will go over its pros and cons as well as go over the current models offered by Mini.

I’m not going to sit here and say that anyone who is at the top, or who has a fancy degree on their wall, is lazy. I won’t say that at all. I will say, though, that too often many of these guys simply put themselves on a pedestal that really has no business being beneath their feet. They all think, regardless of how they arrived where they are, that they have earned their position. They have earned their right to the big prize. They believe wholeheartedly that they deserve every bit of what they have, and that everyman deserves virtually nothing except to be thankful for what the top trickles down.

It could be a BMW thing. I have heard BMWs are some of the hardest to get a good install in. Was he installing it in a side seat and not the center? No car seat is safe to be installed in the center of a BMW (sedans I know for sure). The European sport style seats are not compatible with a center installation. For us, the seat just moved more than he would like, so we are getting help. When meeting with a CPS technician, they ask that you have installed it to the best of your ability ahead of time and they will check your install and help you learn about a proper install and your seat. Our appointment is an hour long and it covers our seat installs and complete car seat safety.

Now you developed a better feeling for the car you should dive into the setup, Here you can find a helpful video guideBut just try to add some camber in the back (2 clicks or so) and it will feel totally different and much more grip in the corners.And some general tips to improve your driving:1: Drive regularly all types of cars (fwd,awd,rwd open wheelers, GT2/3 and street cars) even if you don like some of the other disciplines, it will help you develop a general skill in car handling, this will help you greatly later in your AC/simracing career.

7. Caterham Super 7 R400Caterham is known around the world for their Lotus 7 replica. In fact, it’s not really a replica. It’s more of a continuation of the original design. It has, of course, been upgraded and developed over the years, and this, the R400 Superlight is the best of the build it yourself kits.

7) Jay Inslee. He pretty much the typical Governor type. It refreshing hearing from someone in the executive branch instead of a Senator since they tend to be more pragmatic, jack of all trades, and experienced in getting results; tradeoff if they tend to be weaker on policy and don have focused strong issue points. That being said, he only really stood out for environmental concerns and he otherwise pretty cookie cutter. He make a fine VP pick if he didn come from a safe (D) state.

The HAGI Top Index, which includes 50 models from 19 brands, is down 5.4% year to date but overall has an annualized rate of return of 13% in 38 years. HAGI’s Ferrari Index by comparison has fallen nearly 7% in the same time frame but had seen double digit growth rates until 2016. Its annualized rate of return is 14.8% since launching 38 years ago.

Have a question in my mind and wanted to take advice from you. I got a really good offer from BMW 2018 330i Msport for 150.000 aed. But what am i am thinking is that actually I do not need a Msport package and on the other hand in 2019 the car is going to change completely.

The 25 year old had already agreed to race at the Mexico ePrix his home event but announced Monday that he will drive for the new Chinese team.”I’m very grateful to join Techeetah, a team with real competitiveness,” Gutierrez said in a statement.Jose Maria Lopez: Formula E step forward, says triple WTCC champion”After four years of an incredible experience in F1, I’m now taking a step forward into the future of motorsports.”I am especially excited about my debut race at the Mexico City ePrix. Hopefully I can put on a good show for the passionate home fans.”Gutierrez replaces Chinese driver Ma Qing Hua, who has struggled to compete since making his debut for Techeetah at the Hong Kong ePrix last October.Vergne who raced for DS Virgin Racing last season has fared better, securing Techeetah’s first points at November’s Marrakech ePrix and its maiden podium with second place in Buenos Aires last month.Techeetah was formed when Chinese sports marketing and management company SECA took over Team Aguri, which pulled out of the series following its second season.

The final system is the registration standard. There are two documents that you will need here. The first is the Zulassungsbescheinigung Teil I (a small, folded up piece of paper with the registration particulars of the car) and the Zulassungsbescheinigung Teil II (a certificate that confirms the ownership of the car within Germany). The former needs to be kept in the vehicle at all times and produced to the Polizei on demand, while the latter should be stored safely elsewhere because it functions as a deed of ownership for the vehicle. You will need both documents to transfer registration of the vehicle, so make sure they are provided and match the vehicle when you acquire it. If these are missing, the Kraftfahrzeugzulassungsstelle (Vehicle Registration Office) may refuse to register your car or may deem the vehicle to be a foreign vehicle, subjecting you to 10% duty and 19% VAT on the vehicle’s value. All of these papers with their extremely long names left me scratching my head in confusion when I received them. To think, we in Australia just take a sticker that Vic Roads (the registration department) prints out for us and simply stick it to the windshield. How very unsophisticated of us!

Can he just drive the Subaru all year? We’ve just moved to a snowy area and omg people go on about their Subaru’s. Something about the 50/50 balance of the engine makes them good in snow. Everyone here has awd and I don’t see anyone changing out cars for the season (unless they’re living in much nicer area than I am!).

They would never get away with it, the area is too built up. I see you are in Canada and I know how quiet some parts of it are, especially compared to England, I used to work for a Canadian specialist tour operator and they taught us that the whole of England can fit into the biggest lakes.

Once the box is down, as you can see in the pictures, there is a little plastic wall that holds the harnesses in place. The brown harness is for the post (back) 02 sensor and the black is for the primary (front) 02 sensor. Pull the black harness out of the wall and unclip it. Once it is unclipped release the wires from the clips along the bottom.

But it not 100% necessary if you a short distance commuter.Anything else you should worry about?Tires. They a little expensive (more than $150 per tire). Make sure the car you buy has a relatively fresh set.Range. This thing is going to get between 60 and 80 miles of range, but you won hit that 80 mark outside of perfect conditions (45mph, good weather, no AC/heat usage, eco++ mode).Realistic “safe” range under real world heavy AC/heat use is going to be closer to 60 miles.

Our newspapers, the internet and our television and radio programming are full of stories about the latest fallen hero who did not live up to our unrealistic expectations of them. We view ourselves as so imperfect that when those who we esteem to be perfect fall we show them no mercy whatsoever. The truth is we all have things that we excel at or have the potential to excel at. We all have certain innate attributes and abilities and our own way of manifesting them in our outer realities. That some of us chose to assign our power away through our reluctance to be known and to take responsibility for what we know is a matter of choice. However, when we do so we also give over control of our own lives and assign it instead to the hero of the moment.

They can be done up so nice like you mentioned with the widebody kits. They can be tuned really nice as well. I definitely like mine stock and have no intention of doing any of that. Would like a louder supercar like exhaust I guess but its awesome as it is.

For that you could choose between the Ferrari and whatever you choose between Merc and Audi. It the series I race in at the moment.Even if I have some experience with GT3 already?As I said, racing in IMSA is a completely different beast. Races are longer, there pitstops, and car setup.

If you aren an asshole all the time, and are generally positive and a friendly player who doesn tilt and tries his best, reports do not matter for you. I have between a 9 10K behavior score at all times and when I have a bad game and make too many mistakes and my team decides that it my fault and I need to be reported, I couldn care any less.

Kind of just seeing what people think. I figure that i will start a family in about 5 6 years so if im going to have a sick sports car then now is the time. I was always the FI type who was like oh ill never spend money on a car because its a waste blah blah, but if im only spending an extra couple hundred to enjoy myself then why not? gotta live it up every once in awhile.

While the success was celebrated by BMW Oracle, others were not so happy thanks to another quirk of the Cup. Normally, the first official challenger to throw down the gauntlet becomes the Challenger of Record, but this doesn’t give them an automatic right to race the defender. If other clubs issue separate challenges, it is up to the Challenger of Record to organise a series in which the best challenger goes on to the America’s Cup.

You will also need to specify the actice cell phone number for use with your account. Only one active phone number per account is allowed per subscription fee. You can have more than one active phone number linked to your account but you have to pay an additional subscription fee for each additional active phone number. If your phone number changes, you can add your new phone number, deactivate the old number, then activate the new number and you will not be charged the additional subscription fee.

My i3 has the 20″ tires without winter tires, you will need to use Traction Control, drive carefully and slower than you probably used to. I don feel like the car is going to lose control on straights; its mostly in turning in snow/ice and definitely resistant braking gives the whole car a shimmy slide move which is disconcerting. My rear wheel drive M3 with blizzaks was almost like driving with an SUV in snow much more control.

BMW Transfer Case Actuator Motor Gear Problem in DetailSo what’s going on inside the transfer case actuator motor? In short, there is a nylon (ie: plasticky) gear inside the motor that is turned by a metal worm gear (a screw). Over time the nylon part gets worn down and stripped and does not turn any more. See the photos.

If the majority of your daily driving is within a 30 mile circle of your house, and you only do 30 50 miles of driving per day, this is a fine car. If you frequently find yourself driving further than that. you either going to need a backup second vehicle with a gas engine, or you should REALLY consider jumping up to a REx i3 because it backup gas generator is going to give you the freedom to take the occasional long drive, while still replacing 99% of your mileage with electricity.

So it basically like a corolla in a bmw shell the way I look at it, you are only paying for a nice interior and a bmw badge on it. I just don see the point in buying a performance luxury car if it not sporty. It like buying a new Challenger opting for the v6 instead of the 5.7 or 6.4 392 for an extra 5 6k.

I would prefer to buy an infant seat (carrier?) with two bases, but I don’t know what’ll fit back there. Preliminary research suggests the Chicco Keyfit 30 might work but it doesn’t look that much different from the rest of the brands? Is the only reason it fits because the handle can be positioned up?

Ironically, the original circuit was built to improve safety in the Eifelrennen races that, earlier in the decade, had taken place on public roads running through the Eifel mountains. Intended both to provide thrilling competition and to showcase German engineering talent, the Nrburgring quickly became legendary and the drivers who mastered it came to be known as the “Ringmeisters”, counting among their number names such as Tazio Nuvolari, Rudolf Caracciola and, postwar, Alberto Ascari, Stirling Moss and Jackie Stewart.

The self winding model is by far the most common one. It is simply a mechanical watch with a mainspring wound by the motion of the wearer’s arm. All the models in Rolex’s Oyster Professional and Oyster Perpetual line Explorer, GMT Master II, Submariner, Sea Dweller, Cosmograph Daytona, Yacht Master, Air King, Datejust, and Day Date are self winding.

The problem is, Trump isn doing this to force China to improve their human rights conditions. If he was this might be viewed as smart global policy (if bad economic policy). So it a good thing for the wrong reasons that is going to hurt a lot of people without resulting in any meaningful change.

Should you have further questions or need additional information, you may reply directly to this e mail. Not to the optimal levels like you would doing a precondition but there is some residual warming. So my point was, if you are plugged in, and start conditioning for say 30 min, when you unplug the battery will be in a better state and range than if you simply took off cold. That has been my experience anyway, simple climatizing while plugged in helps your range vs cold startsWe had pretty bad wintery weather here for a week or two, so I parked my i3 and left it plugged in for that time I drove my other vehicle which is more suited to deep snow. I had also turned off all my scheduled departure times so as to not waste power warming the car up when I wasn’t going to drive it.

The Coccoro needs a “pool noodle” in a lot of vehicles, so be prepared for that. If you don’t like the pool noodle idea, you can order a “wedge” from Combi that’s kind of the same thing, but shaped specifically for the Combi brand seats. I would see how it fits in your car before ordering anything special, though.

There is an very audible rapid clicking noise that comes from the transfer case (approximately under the driver’s seat underneath the car) just after the engine is turned off. The best way to hear this is to open the driver’s side door when parked, turn off the engine and listen for the clicking noise (it may not happen EVERY time so try it a few times). The noise should only last about 1 2 seconds, see the video included here for an example of the sound.

At this point I became very frustrated. We have a BMW and so I took it to the nearest service for help and they were baffled. In the end they told me to go to a fire station. So I went to our local station, the man there really tried hard to get it in and again it just wasn’t working.

After hours on the World Wide Web, the cheapest option I could find was a universal 02 sensor for 67.99 at AutoZone. I also came across some posts for VW’s, BMW’s, and Mercs all stating that they were using cheap Ford oxygen sensors, and replacing the harness plug, like you would have to do with the universal 02 sensor anyway. I could not find any documentation on someone using this sensor on an MKIV, but others stated it works great on their MKIII, so for the greater good of mankind I gave it a go.

This helps address a potential conflict of interest which is called the principal agent problem. The issue is that agent (Raiola) is representing not only the financial interests of his principal (de Ligt), but also of Raiola himself. If Raiola were to get a percentage of whatever de Ligt is paid, then Raiola interests should be fully aligned with his principal, and he is incentivized to get de Ligt the best possible contract because that will get him the most compensation as well.

They don have ABS or TC and they much faster, plus they harder to set up. If you only have a little experience in the Ferrari GT3, I would recommend buying the Merc or the Audi and racing those in IMSA GT3, then progress up the ranks into GTE. The experience you gain will be worth it.Real racing drivers don jump the gun on what they race, so we sim drivers shouldn 카지노사이트 either, right?Hmm.

Having said all this, the best feature of connected drive is that sometimes its able to pull locations from google and take you there; so you don need to have every business listed in the car directory. Oh and street view. It will show you street view of the destination before you get there ;)This. Even the same car you can get 30 50K off for 6 12 months used.

The Defender is a great narrow seat for 3 across that’s really budget friendly. Keeps just about every child in a 5 point harness until they are at an appropriate booster age (5 6 years old). My almost 6yo twin sibs are both in Defenders with at least 1 2 years left before they outgrow the harness mode.

On day 88 of the Silverock 90 day plan, I had a drivetrain error pop up out of nowhere. I notified Carvana of the issue since time might be a factor on repair under the Silverock Plan. The dealer figured out the problem and decided they run it through BMW warranty for less hassle. It was in the shop for 30 days waiting for parts from the motherland. They gave me a 320i free of charge. The malfunction was a slight, minuscule drip of coolant from the electric cabinet heater onto its HV line. Both the line and heater element were replaced.

Then we move on to the “WoW is trash” circlejerk. Well, lots of the WoW community is unhappy with BfA to be sure, but welcome to playing WoW. Every other WoW expansion has generally been considered bad. Legion was great, BfA is not. It not a sign of the apocalypse for Blizzard, just the usual cycle for that game.

To replace the washer fluid pump and/or strainer grommet. If you need to replace a leaking pump, I suggest also replacing the strainer grommet at the same time. It’s cheap and will ensure the seal between the pump and grommet don’t leak later. All told, you’ll need less than $50 worth of parts, which if you’ve ever paid a mechanic or dealer for BMW repairs, you’ll know is a relatively cheap repair.

Starting in 1981 there’s the DeLorean DMC 12, which was pretty much a classic the moment it came off the line. Then in the mid 1980’s there’s the Buick Grand National (and even better the Grand National GNX). A black muscle car from Buick that is sure to be desirable well into the future.

Recently, as my boyfriend’s lease term ended this month, we went in to talk to the finance manager about our trade in process (salesperson no longer works there). He said he would try and work on it and to come back. He set us up with a salesperson and we got nowhere. Basically, they screwed us. Even though we negotiated the price of my car before figuring we needed to combine lease payments, I am now stuck with a remaining payment of $825/mo for my car alone as my boyfriend had to trade in his car. Somewhere in the mix of paperwork it was calculated to have my boyfriends value over the 36mo instead of 15. Instead, we should have had a much lower required monthly payment and paid over that amount for the difference of my boyfriends car during the 15mo so when he turned his in my payment would have been $400.

London based fan Peter Simms has owned his 1976 R90S for 30 years, and has ridden it more than 200,000 miles. “I use it virtually every day, which, given its age, bears testament to the superb build quality. I have travelled all over Europe on it and can’t think of a bike, new or old, that could possibly replace it. It’s comfortable, fast, beautifully made and has bags of character.”

June 02 2017EmailTwitterPinterestFacebookDedicated BMW owners always knew. They have long and very happy memories when it comes to the big 8 Series coups of the 1990s, and there was always talk that Bayerische Motoren Werke would revive the Series 8 legacy, reinvent it. Now there is a powerful, beautiful new Concept 8 Series sports coupfrom one of the world’s great car makers.

At 3 am on the 3rd, my sil was in labor, woke her hubby up and told him to get the car they’re going to the hosp. after blowing thru a few stoplights they arrived at the hospital, hubby ran inside to tell er dr to head out there cuz the baby was crowing in bmw, by the time he got back to the car the head was out and he got to deliver the rest!

Vise gripsRemoving the Old Oxygen SensorThe very first thing that needs to be done is spray all around that sensor with your WD 40, Liquid Wrench, or whatever. If you’re not sure where the primary sensor is, look at the first picture below, go to your car and look between the firewall and intake manifold, and you will see it; the wires stick up like a cute little puppy tail on the back of the heat shield.

Because here’s what I generally think. Hard work pays. That’s the motto I try to live my life by. Work hard, make a contribution, and it will pay off one way or another. Nothing in life should be a cakewalk. Nothing should be handed down on a silver platter. Everything should be hard. Everything should be a challenge, and if you get somewhere and you achieve something, by God you should have a trail of blood, sweat, and tears in a long path behind you.

I not found the magic consolidated app or map. In the midwest we have Greenlots showing up at BP stations, EV Connect in some Public Garages, and other locally based rideshare systems like BlueIndy which also allow for charger accounts (you can park and charge in open spaces). You might also look to see where your local government fleets are parking often, these vehicles have chargers in garages that are also accessible to the public.

However, there are other alternatives that homeowners need to be aware of. The rest of this article is devoted to helping you determine what to look for in your cabinets. In the end, you’ll have a better understanding of what you want in your next kitchen and where to buy it.

We also rented an SUV for the trip, and will be spending a fair amount of time in the car, driving at least several times per day. The cheapest SUV we could get was a BMW X3 (I’m kind of excited about this!). The X5 was also an option, but I didn’t think we needed the extra space though now I’m second guessing that. Will the Sureride fit RF (rear facing) in the X3? I’m very opposed to FF him yet, even temporarily. He is still RF (rear facing) at home in an Advocate G3 in my car and a Marathon G3 in DH’s. The Sureride was purchased specifically for travel after reading other posts on this board. I didn’t want to mess with noodles for a good install with our Scenera back up seat, though I have gotten good at the noodle less install of the Scenera since then. Thoughts?

Would you drive such a showy car? If it was what I wanted and could afford, sure. Currently I drive a 07 VW New Beetle. Its my dream car. DH (dear husband) offered to let me trade it in for something “better” and I refuse. I love that thing, it works great, and my kid, carseat, gear and groceries all fit quite nicely. Not to mention its paid off. I would rather spend my money on clothes, shoes and bags then a “better” car though. Although I am sure people would find that pretentious. It’s a fundamental way that humans communicate with each other.

It the same thing as the guys that buy a high powered 30k Ducati race bike to putt around town on. Everyone is entitled to do as they wish and if it worth it to you then awesome, I personally just find the notion silly. I bought a 2016 BMW 3 series slightly used with 1,000 miles on it.

The thing about PHEVs though is that they are mostly a cheap way for manufacturers to get around emission standards by being able to leave the ICE off for a good part of the test cycle, as well as making their cars useable in EV only zones (in some european cities).

On the face of it, by the time the event took place in February, the bitter and divisive affair had achieved little more than illustrating what happens when the sporting co operation that’s so often taken for granted breaks down. To the cynical views of Alinghi and SNG supporters, Ellison had finally gained an entrance to the America’s Cup match proper, something that had eluded him when faced with a multichallenger selection series. By challenging the rules in the courts he now had the defender all to himself.

It’s cheap and will ensure the seal between the pump and grommet don’t leak later.

Just like when the battery in your ICE car it not dead enough to not run the radio but too dead start 카지노사이트 the car.This is a well documented failure mode. It seems the 12v battery is undersized, and BMW has taken a conservative line regarding the lowest voltage the controllers will attempt to “start the car” BMW also designed the car around having consistent access to 220V charging.

You will also need to specify the actice cell phone number for use with your account. Only one active phone number per account is allowed per subscription fee. You can have more than one active phone number linked to your account but you have to pay an additional subscription fee for each additional active phone number. If your phone number changes, you can add your new phone number, deactivate the old number, then activate the new number and you will not be charged the additional subscription fee.

I never said it isn When people mention saving on maintenance costs they don say, “has less cost of maintenance when compared to it rivals.” They say, it an EV with less parts so it has less maintenance than an internal combustion car. That just isn the case. People think that a Tesla will be cheaper to operate and maintain than ANY other car, that isn true. Is it cheaper than some? Absolutely.

Raiola puts the word out that de Ligt is open to a move. A bunch of big clubs come back and say “yes we interested, what sort of terms would the player be looking for?” Raiola says a 5 year contract, de Ligt to be one of the top 5 paid center backs in the world, 10% yearly wage increase, and an 8 figure signing bonus, and on top of that you have to pay me a 20m euro agent fee. Immediately some of the potential buyers drop out because the agent fee is so large, even though they may be willing to pay the transfer fee to Ajax and meet the player contract demands. Perhaps they have a club policy against paying agent fees that large or other financial controls. This obviously limits the potential market for de Ligt somewhat and means he may not get the best possible terms.

I don’t know perhaps this is OK in the states.I think the person who gave the keys can’t have a proper grasp on reality. Here that would be child endangerment, without question and if repeated the vehicle would be removed.The main point I wanted to make, which is why I began by saying I’m not a parent but I have been the unruly child, is you may not be able to stop the desire to drive so you may be better trying to steer it.

The America’s Cup has always been an expensive trophy to compete for but it has rarely been fair. If you win the Cup you host the next event and, to a large extent, control the rules once a challenger comes along and throws down the gauntlet. When they do, and there is no fixed time frame in which they have to do so or when the next America’s Cup match will take place, it is up to the defending yacht club and that of the challenger to agree the terms, venue and dates for the next event. But since 1983, when the Australians won the Cup and ended the Americans’ dominance which had lasted since 1851, the longest winning streak in sporting history international interest in winning the historic trophy surged. Unfortunately, in the scramble to become a challenger and help form the rules for the next Cup, some yacht clubs allowed themselves to accept one sided terms from the defender.

Ferrari, unlike its competitor Porsche, has a problem selling cars in China, the world’s largest automotive market. Just 8% of the 9,251 Ferraris delivered worldwide in 2018 went to China. The largest market for Ferrari is Europe, where 45.7% of cars were delivered in 2018. The Americas accounted for 32.4% of Ferrari sales versus 7% for China last year.

I’ve written hubs like, “Corporate Boards Are Glorified Thieves,” and yes, I know that the word “theifs” is misspelled (hey, even an unskilled political non elite opinion guy like me can be a sucker for a little keyword stuff). Another one I called, “The Jobless Are Not Lazy,” and another one is titled, “Another Example Of An Overpaid CEO,” which is on point about the whole concept of CEO pay, and severence packages which are akin to winning the lottery, but focuses on the exorbitant severence package former HP CEO Mark Hurd enjoyed after resigning his post due to the discovery of falsified expense reports to cover up an affair he had supposedly with a female contractor, and an accusation of sexual harassment.

I was informed by the dealer, that due to some changes Audi made in the brake materials, squeaking was normal. It was such a common complaint, I was even given a pre printed pamphlet all about “brake noise”. I was relieved that nothing was wrong with my brakes, but the squeaking can be very annoying.

In England, BMW is building the Mini, the Rolls Royce as well as body parts and engines for BMW cars. Conversely, many Mini and Rolls Royce components are supplied from the EU. For Mini, the United Kingdom is by far the largest market. Last year, the BMW Group sold almost every tenth car on the island 238,000 vehicles.

14) Joe Biden. He riding on Obama coattails. His policy positions haven changed form 2008, and they weren even good in 2008. He slower and even more tone death now, and he wasn particularly fast before. He came off as absolutely condescending and sleazy with all the negative traits of a Boomer. He doesn even have the gravitas expected of a senior statesman anymore, everyone was easily able to force him onto the defensive and his whole platform seemed to be “I going to take credit for Obama things and double down on all the Obama things that didn work out”.

My wife’s cousin, she was spoiled as a child with wealthy parents and was never told no. She was raised believing she was a princess and now she is out of high school and weight has caught up with her in a big way. She is pushing 285 lbs but still thinks she is a princess and wears such revealing clothes. She won’t take hints, my wife has tried to invite her to work out with her but she thinks they are equal and she weighs considerably more than double.

Later if you must get an prestigious badged car (It arguable in SoCal if any of the big 3 german brands can be viewed as prestigious short of the $150k+ semi exotics), go buy an 3 year old CPO BMW for 50% of MSRP while still having 2 3 more years of CPO warranty coverage.

For instance when I am in maps through a hot click from a notification in the music app, from the app POV I am still on the music screen which messes up the one click navigation from the buttons next to the controller. Hope that makes sense.Also the HUD display and controls don’t work with CarPlay.

Into a sea of large, square and wallowy cars they floated a design so cutting edge it took the breath away. A small car that was wider than it was tall; 2 feet wider in fact, with a huge wrap around 3 piece rear window that gave it the appearance of a spaceship. The car had 70% more glass area than the average car in its class. And along with the futuristic styling came the promise of technology to match.

I wish you luck in overcoming your suicidal thoughts and/or desires. I hope you understand that it not normal to want to die, and that while you may feel like you rationally considering things, the most likely possibility is that you are not, and you owe it to yourself to explore every opportunity to get better. There is hope. Even for me.

The Coccoro, if it will work for you, will last you longer than an infant seat. At least, longer than a small infant seat that will work. Instead of being super reclined like an infant seat, it installs a little more upright and then there’s an insert inside to recline the newborn. It should last an average sized, average build baby to about age two rear facing, and maybe 3 forward facing. Big babies will outgrow it sooner, of course, but petite babies can use it longer. If you’re going to be stuck with this car for a long time, I’d probably recommend you see if a Coccoro will fit your vehicle.

I got caught up in line at Cub today cuz the boy behind the counter didn’t know how to process WIC. One lady got so annoyed at me for holding up the line, she scoffed and went to the customer service desk three feet away and got snippy with the lady there. I felt terrible, and it must’ve shown on my face because the next people in line smiled at me and said they understood, they’d been in my shoes and they know how hard times are now. They were a nice older couple, the woman even gave me a small hug and told me to keep doing everything I could for my beautiful son, because that is all a mother can be expected to do. I bawled, and Mar just smiled at her.

13) Bernie Sanders. Wide candidate debates pretty much exposed Bernie as, well, outdated. He couldn keep up, fought with the moderators, evaded questions, and defaulted to his grumpy grandpa stump speech. His ideas aren special anymore now that everyone has taken them. He all finger pointing and criticism and relishing on the past and overselling past accomplishments. I want solutions and path to solutions, not empty vague promises. “I had that idea first” is not an acceptable platform and it far less preferable to the current candidates who have taken his ideas and actually made them reasonable and actionable. It evident his success in 2016 was more from being not Hillary than from his own strengths.

Have a question in my mind and wanted to take advice from you. I got a really good offer from BMW 2018 330i Msport for 150.000 aed. But what am i am thinking is that actually I do not need a Msport package and on the other hand in 2019 the car is going to change completely.

After pulling out the first sensor and seeing the date of 1999, I knew this thing was rotten like an outhouse. So, like anyone else trying to save a buck in this economy, I went to the World Wide Web and found my solution: I just had to soak this bad boy in gas for a few days and it would run like new! Nope! Fail. Maybe it works for some, but it definitely did not work for me.

I am glad I don have monthly payments now but looking back, buying a BMW was a great decision because I was 24 and I could afford it. Now, after marriage I don see myself buying a German car. I want peace of mind and that something that a German car does not give you. When I look at my wife Camry and her maintenance costs, I wonder is it worth it?

I trying to play the career, but I find myself having shitloads of not fun. Which is kind of bad, since fun is the whole point of playing, right?Right now I wrestling the BMW Z4, supposed to do the first race (sprint) of the N2 stage. I put about 6, maybe 7 8, hours on practice with that car (none of them particularly fun.) on Nrburgring GP (short/sprint whatever it called) without managing to achieve better times than 1.50.3.Any time I try to run the sprint against the AI opponents, I have no problem getting up to third position on the start straight, but then there no chance in hell to keep up with the first two cars.

Well, he took my information and let me go. People in the area say that the cops often do a stealth swoop, and pull over the first person they see, to see if they can catch a drunk. Well, unknown to that jackass. I didn’t have a drop of alcohol, I don’t smoke, or do drugs. So he was out of luck.

Forget the automobile. Our whole auto centric world is primitive. Our cities are sprawling concrete monstrosities dissected by arteries of death and filled with these grotesque beasts spewing out toxic waste clouds. Its a nightmare we have all just become used to because it is all we’ve ever known. ANY automobile is primitive.

I never driven a real FWD where the back is so happy to come around as that piece of crap.Do someone have a video of a fast lap with that car on Nrburgring GP short, so I can see how others does it? Any suggestions on settings to make it bearable?No, that was me being dumb, lol.

To make that happen, to create a timeless machine for fast moving times, BMW has simplified its design language, with economy of line and sculpture. That means, when you look at this new Concept 8 Series, that you see sharpness and precision, and a startling sleekness through the way the design team has achieved light and shadow on the car’s exterior. If you look closely enough, you can even see the future.

Bloomberg had some car engineers tear down a model 3. What they found was that it was over engineered in a way that didn’t benefit the overall product, but made production more complicated and expensive. They found that had Tesla used more traditional manufacturing methods like those of Toyota or Ford, they could have increased profit margins significantly without sacrificing any of the model 3’s safety or structural integrity.

Depending on the features included (upgraded infotainment, leather, etc,) that either “a good price” or “a steal.” Find out which “package” it has. (Mega, Giga, Tera.) And if it BMW Certified Preowned. That gets some extra factory warranty.It comes with a portable “occasional use cable” that is slow, but it works in a pinch.

You can use the BMW for so many different things. You can drive it to work. You can drive it to get food. And best of all, you can have it sit in front of your house so that everyone in the street knows that you Martin Caton have a BMW and are a WINNER!

And buy something fun but not so insane? If you want to buy an M3 later, you can always sell your car and upgrade. Congrats on that first off.$50k for a vehicle at your income is within a reasonable purchase price for a vehicle. Put a decent chunk (20%+) down on it and keep the financing short.

2. Factory Five Racing Type 65 DaytonaThere aren’t many cars that are more beautiful than the AC Cobra, but this is one of them. Based on the super rare, race spec only 1964/1965 Shelby Daytona, this is a stunning kit for those wanting something a little special and rare. They only ever built six originals, so there aren’t too many floating about.

Can he just drive the Subaru all year? We’ve just moved to a snowy area and omg people go on about their Subaru’s. Something about the 50/50 balance of the engine makes them good in snow. Everyone here has awd and I don’t see anyone changing out cars for the season (unless they’re living in much nicer area than I am!).

Today those fuels are still offered at gas stations and the government forces gas producers to mix it into the gasoline (heavily jeopardizing the overall gasoline quality). Other than that, there is an equation that gas stations put up showing when its better to buy biofuels than gasoline. I never seen the equation pointing towards them.

It virtually impossible due to the electric drivetrain to make an EV version of an ICE model and make the car desirable for the old reasons. The lineup has to be created again and would have to appeal at each price point for new reasons. Acceleration vs top speed, energy efficiency versus track performance, charge speed versus refueling, they can be electric versions of the gas cars. The cars need to appeal to EV people and they will appreciate the longer range for a less luxurious interior. To them the technology is the new luxury, not the wood trims, leather and many buttons. The drivetrain also allows more interior space for a given wheel base that usually determines segments of the market. The rules are different.

For the reddit discussion on the rest of his talk, see here. The apps will give info on any maintenance that needs to be done, recalls on parts, non mutable mileage, how far until next oil change, etc. All the information could be imported from the car through the internet to the blockchain. Then, using Thor saved onto the blockchain. I also could say it never been in an accident before even though it has been. I could also say it has all OEM parts but if we use blockchain we could have a small microchip IOT that verifies the part is OEM instead of 3rd party. Also, a scammer could swap VIN from a broken car to a stolen car. Blockchain can prevent scams and save companies $$ because of immutable data.

The Audi TT RS is coming to the United States in limited quantities, and it’s only available with a proper manual transmission. This sportier version of the TT has plenty of grip, with its wide tires and Audi’s Quattro AWD system. Add the 360 horsepower produced by the five turbocharged cylinders to these factors, and the acceleration from this car is absolutely brutal. Unlike most of the cars on this list, which have rear wheel drive, the TT RS can get more of its power to the road on hard launches. Despite the car’s 카지노사이트 sporty performance, it isn’t a stripped out hardcore track monster. It’s got a decently sized trunk, rear seats that can fit a gym bag or small children, and a good sized driver’s seat taller individuals who might not fit in something like a Porsche Boxster can comfortably drive the TT RS. In summary, the TT RS delivers plenty of performance to keep your inner Stig happy while maintaining some semblance of practicality.

When you become a parent, something inside of you fundamentally changes. You don matter anymore. Your child is all that matters. I always thought this was bullshit before I had kids, just something people said because society guilted them into it, but it not. There definitely something that changes. It not to say you can dislike your own child at times or there aren major difficulties in parenting that makes you sometimes wish you just stayed single and celebrate and just did whatever you wanted, but in spite of all that, the feeling remains.

This is my personal favorite vintage motorcycle. It may not be a speed demon, but it is a reliable workhorse. These bikes were made from 1960 1969. BMWs of this era were probably the best touring bikes available at the time. Many accessories were available including fairings, oversized fuel tanks, and luggage. Countless miles have been put on R60/2s, and they just keep going. The shaft final drive was quite unusual for its day, though not uncommon today. Parts availability for BMW motorcycles is generally good compared to more rare machines. These bikes are not too difficult to find today. I hope to own one myself someday.

The new officer is trained to take command and expects immediate obedience from a citizen, and a citizen has no rights at all during the situation. That’s what we saw in the Boston neighborhood as cops were searching for the Marathon bomber. People were ordered out of their homes by yelling and shoving officers, with no regard at all for their rights as American citizens. That would not have happened a few decades ago. I don’t think it should be happening today.

Jack got up from her bench and turned away from the railing and the view of the city below. She began scanning the crowd, throwing the ever present interface panel behind her like an over the shoulder camera. She immediately spotted a player not even 100 feet away on another bench, basking in the sun.

The Mazda Miata earned its spot on top of this list for one reason: It is the best “driver’s car” of the bunch the one that dominates Autocross events nationwide and single handedly resurrected the old fashioned British Roadster concept. The Miata is anything but practical, and, for those living in northern climates, it won’t be particularly great to drive in the snow, but the handling and rear wheel drive brilliance all summer long will more than make up for it. In fact, many Miatas in northern areas such as “Minnesnowta” and Wisconsin have been summer only cars since they were first purchased. Therefore, you’ll be able to find a purist driver’s car with relatively few miles on it (considering the age) on a reasonable budget.

Throughout this whole process I kept thinking: I could walk into any BMW, Porsche, Toyota, whatever dealership with this pre approved loan and leave with a new car in less than 60 minutes most likely. If it took longer, it only be because they getting me a bigger discount or getting it delivered from another store.

And yes to what pp said about maintaining! My dh (dear husband) works on cars and said we will never get one. Tires are expensive, oil changes are $150. I had a tiny bump with one in a parking lot (seriously just a scratch, no dent) and their dealer charged $750! The scratch on my dodge rubbed right off. I thought they were scammers, but my insurance said just painting a 2017 bmw bumper costs that. Kind of impractical for an icy environment. I guess if you have money to blow. but then why is he worrying about gas mileage costs in that case.

I settled on an SE and I really like it so far. I wanted fun to drive and after test driving the Mazda 3, while I really enjoyed it, at the end of the day it was just okay. It wasn anything special to me, wasn fun to drive, but it really a great car.

There can be paradox in progress. Here is a simplified BMW design language, a startling economy of line and sculpture, married to enviable comfort and sophistication. This gorgeous coup is “still a car for driving”, says Starke,”that is paramount, but our design answers have to keep getting better and better; we must reach for perfection as we approach that axis of humans and machines.”

“We’ve made no decision on venue, we have no firm decision on a date, but we do have a Challenger of Record,” Ellison explained. “But one thing I’d like to assure people on about the 34th America’s Cup is that there will be a completely independent jury, there will be completely independent umpires. It will be an independent group that manages the next America’s Cup and it will be a level playing field for all competitors.” And despite having won, Ellison was clearly keen to ensure that no one forgot about the two year struggle his team had undergone in its attempt to regain equilibrium, and his winner’s speech struck a chord with those who had witnessed the breakdown of the Cup.
